    Description: The transcription factor NF-kappaB modulates apoptotic responses induced by genotoxic stress. We show that NF-kappaB essential modulator (NEMO), the regulatory subunit of IkappaB kinase (IKK) (which phosphorylates the NF-kappaB inhibitor IkappaB), associates with activated ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) after the induction of DNA double-strand breaks. ATM phosphorylates serine-85 of NEMO to promote its ubiquitin-dependent nuclear export. ATM is also exported in a NEMO-dependent manner to the cytoplasm, where it associates with and causes the activation of IKK in a manner dependent on another IKK regulator, a protein rich in glutamate, leucine, lysine, and serine (ELKS). Thus, regulated nuclear shuttling of NEMO links two signaling kinases, ATM and IKK, to activate NF-kappaB by genotoxic signals.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wu, Zhao-Hui -- Shi, Yuling -- Tibbetts, Randal S -- Miyamoto, Shigeki -- R01-CA77474/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01-CA81065/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01-GM067868/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Feb 24;311(5764):1141-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology, University of Wisconsin-Madison, 301 SMI, 1300 University Avenue, Madison, WI 53706, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16497931" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: We describe the use of gold nanoparticle-oligonucleotide complexes as intracellular gene regulation agents for the control of protein expression in cells. These oligonucleotide-modified nanoparticles have affinity constants for complementary nucleic acids that are higher than their unmodified oligonucleotide counterparts, are less susceptible to degradation by nuclease activity, exhibit greater than 99% cellular uptake, can introduce oligonucleotides at a higher effective concentration than conventional transfection agents, and are nontoxic to the cells under the conditions studied. By chemically tailoring the density of DNA bound to the surface of gold nanoparticles, we demonstrated a tunable gene knockdown.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rosi, Nathaniel L -- Giljohann, David A -- Thaxton, C Shad -- Lytton-Jean, Abigail K R -- Han, Min Su -- Mirkin, Chad A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 May 19;312(5776):1027-30.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry and International Institute for Nanotechnology, Northwestern University, 2145 Sheridan Road, Evanston, IL 60208-3113 USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16709779" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Chromosomal integration enables human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) to establish a permanent reservoir that can be therapeutically suppressed but not eradicated. Participation of cellular proteins in this obligate replication step is poorly understood. We used intensified RNA interference and dominant-negative protein approaches to show that the cellular transcriptional coactivator lens epithelium-derived growth factor (LEDGF)/p75 (p75) is an essential HIV integration cofactor. The mechanism requires both linkages of a molecular tether that p75 forms between integrase and chromatin. Fractionally minute levels of endogenous p75 are sufficient to enable integration, showing that cellular factors that engage HIV after entry may elude identification in less intensive knockdowns. Perturbing the p75-integrase interaction may have therapeutic potential.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Llano, Manuel -- Saenz, Dyana T -- Meehan, Anne -- Wongthida, Phonphimon -- Peretz, Mary -- Walker, William H -- Teo, Wulin -- Poeschla, Eric M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Oct 20;314(5798):461-4.

    Description: The surface potential of biological membranes varies according to their lipid composition. We devised genetically encoded probes to assess surface potential in intact cells. These probes revealed marked, localized alterations in the charge of the inner surface of the plasma membrane of macrophages during the course of phagocytosis. Hydrolysis of phosphoinositides and displacement of phosphatidylserine accounted for the change in surface potential at the phagosomal cup. Signaling molecules such as K-Ras, Rac1, and c-Src that are targeted to the membrane by electrostatic interactions were rapidly released from membrane subdomains where the surface charge was altered by lipid remodeling during phagocytosis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yeung, Tony -- Terebiznik, Mauricio -- Yu, Liming -- Silvius, John -- Abidi, Wasif M -- Philips, Mark -- Levine, Tim -- Kapus, Andras -- Grinstein, Sergio -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Jul 21;313(5785):347-51.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Cell Biology, Hepatology, and Nutrition Department, Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, Ontario M5G 1X8, Canada.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16857939" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Mutations in the nuclear structural protein lamin A cause the premature aging syndrome Hutchinson-Gilford progeria (HGPS). Whether lamin A plays any role in normal aging is unknown. We show that the same molecular mechanism responsible for HGPS is active in healthy cells. Cell nuclei from old individuals acquire defects similar to those of HGPS patient cells, including changes in histone modifications and increased DNA damage. Age-related nuclear defects are caused by sporadic use, in healthy individuals, of the same cryptic splice site in lamin A whose constitutive activation causes HGPS. Inhibition of this splice site reverses the nuclear defects associated with aging. These observations implicate lamin A in physiological aging.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1855250/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1855250/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Scaffidi, Paola -- Misteli, Tom -- Z01 BC010309-07/BC/NCI NIH HHS/ -- Intramural NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 May 19;312(5776):1059-63.

    Description: The ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) protein kinase is a critical component of a DNA-damage response network configured to maintain genomic integrity. The abundance of an essential downstream effecter of this pathway, the tumor suppressor protein p53, is tightly regulated by controlled degradation through COP1 and other E3 ubiquitin ligases, such as MDM2 and Pirh2; however, the signal transduction pathway that regulates the COP1-p53 axis following DNA damage remains enigmatic. We observed that in response to DNA damage, ATM phosphorylated COP1 on Ser(387) and stimulated a rapid autodegradation mechanism. Ionizing radiation triggered an ATM-dependent movement of COP1 from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, and ATM-dependent phosphorylation of COP1 on Ser(387) was both necessary and sufficient to disrupt the COP1-p53 complex and subsequently to abrogate the ubiquitination and degradation of p53. Furthermore, phosphorylation of COP1 on Ser(387) was required to permit p53 to become stabilized and to exert its tumor suppressor properties in response to DNA damage.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dornan, David -- Shimizu, Harumi -- Mah, Angie -- Dudhela, Tanay -- Eby, Michael -- O'rourke, Karen -- Seshagiri, Somasekar -- Dixit, Vishva M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Aug 25;313(5790):1122-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Physiological Chemistry, Genentech, Inc., 1 DNA Way, South San Francisco, CA 94080, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16931761" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The tumor suppressor programmed cell death protein 4 (PDCD4) inhibits the translation initiation factor eIF4A, an RNA helicase that catalyzes the unwinding of secondary structure at the 5' untranslated region (5'UTR) of messenger RNAs (mRNAs). In response to mitogens, PDCD4 was rapidly phosphorylated on Ser67 by the protein kinase S6K1 and subsequently degraded via the ubiquitin ligase SCF(betaTRCP). Expression in cultured cells of a stable PDCD4 mutant that is unable to bind betaTRCP inhibited translation of an mRNA with a structured 5'UTR, resulted in smaller cell size, and slowed down cell cycle progression. We propose that regulated degradation of PDCD4 in response to mitogens allows efficient protein synthesis and consequently cell growth.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dorrello, N Valerio -- Peschiaroli, Angelo -- Guardavaccaro, Daniele -- Colburn, Nancy H -- Sherman, Nicholas E -- Pagano, Michele -- R01-CA76584/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01-GM57587/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Oct 20;314(5798):467-71.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, NYU Cancer Institute, New York University School of Medicine, 550 First Avenue, MSB 599, New York, NY 10016, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17053147" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Transient infection of eukaryotic cells with commensal and extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli of phylogenetic group B2 blocks mitosis and induces megalocytosis. This trait is linked to a widely spread genomic island that encodes giant modular nonribosomal peptide and polyketide synthases. Contact with E. coli expressing this gene cluster causes DNA double-strand breaks and activation of the DNA damage checkpoint pathway, leading to cell cycle arrest and eventually to cell death. Discovery of hybrid peptide-polyketide genotoxins in E. coli will change our view on pathogenesis and commensalism and open new biotechnological applications.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Nougayrede, Jean-Philippe -- Homburg, Stefan -- Taieb, Frederic -- Boury, Michele -- Brzuszkiewicz, Elzbieta -- Gottschalk, Gerhard -- Buchrieser, Carmen -- Hacker, Jorg -- Dobrindt, Ulrich -- Oswald, Eric -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Aug 11;313(5788):848-51.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉INRA, UMR1225, Ecole Nationale Veterinaire de Toulouse, Toulouse F-31076, France.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16902142" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Guanosine triphosphatases of the Rab family are key regulators of membrane trafficking, with Rab11 playing a specific role in membrane recycling. We identified a mammalian protein, protrudin, that promoted neurite formation through interaction with the guanosine diphosphate (GDP)-bound form of Rab11. Phosphorylation of protrudin by extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) in response to nerve growth factor promoted protrudin association with Rab11-GDP. Down-regulation of protrudin by RNA interference induced membrane extension in all directions and inhibited neurite formation. Thus, protrudin regulates Rab11-dependent membrane recycling to promote the directional membrane trafficking required for neurite formation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shirane, Michiko -- Nakayama, Keiichi I -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Nov 3;314(5800):818-21.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, Medical Institute of Bioregulation, Kyushu University, 3-1-1 Maidashi, Higashi-ku, Fukuoka, Fukuoka 812-8582, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17082457" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Antibody class switching in activated B cells uses class switch recombination (CSR), which joins activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID)-dependent double-strand breaks (DSBs) within two large immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) locus switch (S) regions that lie up to 200 kilobases apart. To test postulated roles of S regions and AID in CSR, we generated mutant B cells in which donor Smu and accepter Sgamma1 regions were replaced with yeast I-SceI endonuclease sites. We found that site-specific I-SceI DSBs mediate recombinational IgH locus class switching from IgM to IgG1 without S regions or AID. We propose that CSR evolved to exploit a general DNA repair process that promotes joining of widely separated DSBs within a chromosome.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zarrin, Ali A -- Del Vecchio, Catherine -- Tseng, Eva -- Gleason, Megan -- Zarin, Payam -- Tian, Ming -- Alt, Frederick W -- 2P01AI031541-15/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- P01CA092625-05/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2007 Jan 19;315(5810):377-81.

    Description: Genetically matched pluripotent embryonic stem (ES) cells generated via nuclear transfer or parthenogenesis (pES cells) are a potential source of histocompatible cells and tissues for transplantation. After parthenogenetic activation of murine oocytes and interruption of meiosis I or II, we isolated and genotyped pES cells and characterized those that carried the full complement of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) antigens of the oocyte donor. Differentiated tissues from these pES cells engrafted in immunocompetent MHC-matched mouse recipients, demonstrating that selected pES cells can serve as a source of histocompatible tissues for transplantation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kim, Kitai -- Lerou, Paul -- Yabuuchi, Akiko -- Lengerke, Claudia -- Ng, Kitwa -- West, Jason -- Kirby, Andrew -- Daly, Mark J -- Daley, George Q -- T32: HD07466/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2007 Jan 26;315(5811):482-6.

    Description: Synonymous single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) do not produce altered coding sequences, and therefore they are not expected to change the function of the protein in which they occur. We report that a synonymous SNP in the Multidrug Resistance 1 (MDR1) gene, part of a haplotype previously linked to altered function of the MDR1 gene product P-glycoprotein (P-gp), nonetheless results in P-gp with altered drug and inhibitor interactions. Similar mRNA and protein levels, but altered conformations, were found for wild-type and polymorphic P-gp. We hypothesize that the presence of a rare codon, marked by the synonymous polymorphism, affects the timing of cotranslational folding and insertion of P-gp into the membrane, thereby altering the structure of substrate and inhibitor interaction sites.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kimchi-Sarfaty, Chava -- Oh, Jung Mi -- Kim, In-Wha -- Sauna, Zuben E -- Calcagno, Anna Maria -- Ambudkar, Suresh V -- Gottesman, Michael M -- Intramural NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2007 Jan 26;315(5811):525-8.

    Description: Store-operated Ca2+ entry is mediated by Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels following Ca2+ release from intracellular stores. We performed a genome-wide RNA interference (RNAi) screen in Drosophila cells to identify proteins that inhibit store-operated Ca2+ influx. A secondary patch-clamp screen identified CRACM1 and CRACM2 (CRAC modulators 1 and 2) as modulators of Drosophila CRAC currents. We characterized the human ortholog of CRACM1, a plasma membrane-resident protein encoded by gene FLJ14466. Although overexpression of CRACM1 did not affect CRAC currents, RNAi-mediated knockdown disrupted its activation. CRACM1 could be the CRAC channel itself, a subunit of it, or a component of the CRAC signaling machinery.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Vig, M -- Peinelt, C -- Beck, A -- Koomoa, D L -- Rabah, D -- Koblan-Huberson, M -- Kraft, S -- Turner, H -- Fleig, A -- Penner, R -- Kinet, J-P -- 5-R37-GM053950/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01-AI050200/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01-GM065360/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01-NS040927/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 May 26;312(5777):1220-3.

    Description: We introduce a method for optically imaging intracellular proteins at nanometer spatial resolution. Numerous sparse subsets of photoactivatable fluorescent protein molecules were activated, localized (to approximately 2 to 25 nanometers), and then bleached. The aggregate position information from all subsets was then assembled into a superresolution image. We used this method--termed photoactivated localization microscopy--to image specific target proteins in thin sections of lysosomes and mitochondria; in fixed whole cells, we imaged vinculin at focal adhesions, actin within a lamellipodium, and the distribution of the retroviral protein Gag at the plasma membrane.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Betzig, Eric -- Patterson, George H -- Sougrat, Rachid -- Lindwasser, O Wolf -- Olenych, Scott -- Bonifacino, Juan S -- Davidson, Michael W -- Lippincott-Schwartz, Jennifer -- Hess, Harald F -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Sep 15;313(5793):1642-5.

    Description: The spindle assembly checkpoint guards the fidelity of chromosome segregation. It requires the close cooperation of cell cycle regulatory proteins and cytoskeletal elements to sense spindle integrity. The role of the centrosome, the organizing center of the microtubule cytoskeleton, in the spindle checkpoint is unclear. We found that the molecular requirements for a functional spindle checkpoint included components of the large gamma-tubulin ring complex (gamma-TuRC). However, their localization at the centrosome and centrosome integrity were not essential for this function. Thus, the spindle checkpoint can be activated at the level of microtubule nucleation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Muller, Hannah -- Fogeron, Marie-Laure -- Lehmann, Verena -- Lehrach, Hans -- Lange, Bodo M H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Oct 27;314(5799):654-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Vertebrate Genomics, Max-Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics, Ihnestrasse 73, D-14195 Berlin, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17068266" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: To pursue a systematic approach to the discovery of functional connections among diseases, genetic perturbation, and drug action, we have created the first installment of a reference collection of gene-expression profiles from cultured human cells treated with bioactive small molecules, together with pattern-matching software to mine these data. We demonstrate that this "Connectivity Map" resource can be used to find connections among small molecules sharing a mechanism of action, chemicals and physiological processes, and diseases and drugs. These results indicate the feasibility of the approach and suggest the value of a large-scale community Connectivity Map project.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lamb, Justin -- Crawford, Emily D -- Peck, David -- Modell, Joshua W -- Blat, Irene C -- Wrobel, Matthew J -- Lerner, Jim -- Brunet, Jean-Philippe -- Subramanian, Aravind -- Ross, Kenneth N -- Reich, Michael -- Hieronymus, Haley -- Wei, Guo -- Armstrong, Scott A -- Haggarty, Stephen J -- Clemons, Paul A -- Wei, Ru -- Carr, Steven A -- Lander, Eric S -- Golub, Todd R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Sep 29;313(5795):1929-35.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Broad Institute of Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02142, USA. justin@broad.mit.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17008526" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Innate immunity against bacterial and fungal pathogens is mediated by Toll and immune deficiency (Imd) pathways, but little is known about the antiviral response in Drosophila. Here, we demonstrate that an RNA interference pathway protects adult flies from infection by two evolutionarily diverse viruses. Our work also describes a molecular framework for the viral immunity, in which viral double-stranded RNA produced during infection acts as the pathogen trigger whereas Drosophila Dicer-2 and Argonaute-2 act as host sensor and effector, respectively. These findings establish a Drosophila model for studying the innate immunity against viruses in animals.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1509097/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1509097/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wang, Xiao-Hong -- Aliyari, Roghiyh -- Li, Wan-Xiang -- Li, Hong-Wei -- Kim, Kevin -- Carthew, Richard -- Atkinson, Peter -- Ding, Shou-Wei -- AI052447/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI052447/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM068743/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Apr 21;312(5772):452-4.

    Description: G protein betagamma subunits have potential as a target for therapeutic treatment of a number of diseases. We performed virtual docking of a small-molecule library to a site on Gbetagamma subunits that mediates protein interactions. We hypothesized that differential targeting of this surface could allow for selective modulation of Gbetagamma subunit functions. Several compounds bound to Gbetagamma subunits with affinities from 0.1 to 60 muM and selectively modulated functional Gbetagamma-protein-protein interactions in vitro, chemotactic peptide signaling pathways in HL-60 leukocytes, and opioid receptor-dependent analgesia in vivo. These data demonstrate an approach for modulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling that may represent an important therapeutic strategy.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bonacci, Tabetha M -- Mathews, Jennifer L -- Yuan, Chujun -- Lehmann, David M -- Malik, Sundeep -- Wu, Dianqing -- Font, Jose L -- Bidlack, Jean M -- Smrcka, Alan V -- GM60286/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- HL-T3207949/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL080706/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- K05-DA00360/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA132317/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM054597/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM054597-09/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL080706/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL080706-10/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL080706-11/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- T32DA07232/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Apr 21;312(5772):443-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology and Physiology, University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry, Rochester, NY 14642, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16627746" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Axonal guidance and vascular patterning share several guidance cues, including proteins in the netrin family. We demonstrate that netrins stimulate proliferation, migration, and tube formation of human endothelial cells in vitro and that this stimulation is independent of known netrin receptors. Suppression of netrin1a messenger RNA in zebrafish inhibits vascular sprouting, implying a proangiogenic role for netrins during vertebrate development. We also show that netrins accelerate neovascularization in an in vivo model of ischemia and that they reverse neuropathy and vasculopathy in a diabetic murine model. We propose that the attractive vascular and neural guidance functions of netrins offer a unique therapeutic potential.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2577078/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2577078/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wilson, Brent D -- Ii, Masaaki -- Park, Kye Won -- Suli, Arminda -- Sorensen, Lise K -- Larrieu-Lahargue, Frederic -- Urness, Lisa D -- Suh, Wonhee -- Asai, Jun -- Kock, Gerhardus A H -- Thorne, Tina -- Silver, Marcy -- Thomas, Kirk R -- Chien, Chi-Bin -- Losordo, Douglas W -- Li, Dean Y -- R01 HL068873/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL077671/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL077671-03/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Aug 4;313(5787):640-4.

    Description: Abnormally synchronized synaptic transmission in the brain causes epilepsy. Most inherited forms of epilepsy result from mutations in ion channels. However, one form of epilepsy, autosomal dominant partial epilepsy with auditory features (ADPEAF), is characterized by mutations in a secreted neuronal protein, LGI1. We show that ADAM22, a transmembrane protein that when mutated itself causes seizure, serves as a receptor for LGI1. LGI1 enhances AMPA receptor-mediated synaptic transmission in hippocampal slices. The mutated form of LGI1 fails to bind to ADAM22. ADAM22 is anchored to the postsynaptic density by cytoskeletal scaffolds containing stargazin. These studies in rat brain indicate possible avenues for understanding human epilepsy.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fukata, Yuko -- Adesnik, Hillel -- Iwanaga, Tsuyoshi -- Bredt, David S -- Nicoll, Roger A -- Fukata, Masaki -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Sep 22;313(5794):1792-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Genomics and Proteomics, National Institute for Longevity Sciences, National Center for Geriatrics and Gerontology, Obu, Aichi 474-8522, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16990550" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Wnt proteins function as morphogens that can form long-range concentration gradients to pattern developing tissues. Here, we show that the retromer, a multiprotein complex involved in intracellular protein trafficking, is required for long-range signaling of the Caenorhabditis elegans Wnt ortholog EGL-20. The retromer functions in EGL-20-producing cells to allow the formation of an EGL-20 gradient along the anteroposterior axis. This function is evolutionarily conserved, because Wnt target gene expression is also impaired in the absence of the retromer complex in vertebrates.

    Description: Immunity-related p47 guanosine triphosphatases (IRG) play a role in defense against intracellular pathogens. We found that the murine Irgm1 (LRG-47) guanosine triphosphatase induced autophagy and generated large autolysosomal organelles as a mechanism for the elimination of intracellular Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We also identified a function for a human IRG protein in the control of intracellular pathogens and report that the human Irgm1 ortholog, IRGM, plays a role in autophagy and in the reduction of intracellular bacillary load.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Singh, Sudha B -- Davis, Alexander S -- Taylor, Gregory A -- Deretic, Vojo -- AI42999/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI45148/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI57831/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI057831/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- T32 AI007538/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Sep 8;313(5792):1438-41.

    Description: Yersinia species use a variety of type III effector proteins to target eukaryotic signaling systems. The effector YopJ inhibits mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and the nuclear factor kappaB (NFkappaB) signaling pathways used in innate immune response by preventing activation of the family of MAPK kinases (MAPKK). We show that YopJ acted as an acetyltransferase, using acetyl-coenzyme A (CoA) to modify the critical serine and threonine residues in the activation loop of MAPKK6 and thereby blocking phosphorylation. The acetylation on MAPKK6 directly competed with phosphorylation, preventing activation of the modified protein. This covalent modification may be used as a general regulatory mechanism in biological signaling.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mukherjee, Sohini -- Keitany, Gladys -- Li, Yan -- Wang, Yong -- Ball, Haydn L -- Goldsmith, Elizabeth J -- Orth, Kim -- R01-AI056404/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R21-DK072134/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 May 26;312(5777):1211-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX 75390, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16728640" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Genetic mutations that disrupt osteoblast function can result in skeletal dysmorphogenesis or, more rarely, in increased postnatal bone formation. Here we show that Schnurri-3 (Shn3), a mammalian homolog of the Drosophila zinc finger adapter protein Shn, is an essential regulator of adult bone formation. Mice lacking Shn3 display adult-onset osteosclerosis with increased bone mass due to augmented osteoblast activity. Shn3 was found to control protein levels of Runx2, the principal transcriptional regulator of osteoblast differentiation, by promoting its degradation through recruitment of the E3 ubiquitin ligase WWP1 to Runx2. By this means, Runx2-mediated extracellular matrix mineralization was antagonized, revealing an essential role for Shn3 as a central regulator of postnatal bone mass.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Jones, Dallas C -- Wein, Marc N -- Oukka, Mohamed -- Hofstaetter, Jochen G -- Glimcher, Melvin J -- Glimcher, Laurie H -- AI29673/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AR46983/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 May 26;312(5777):1223-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Immunology and Infectious Diseases, Harvard School of Public Health, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16728642" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: During fasting, increased concentrations of circulating catecholamines promote the mobilization of lipid stores from adipose tissue in part by phosphorylating and inactivating acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase (ACC), the rate-limiting enzyme in fatty acid synthesis. Here, we describe a parallel pathway, in which the pseudokinase Tribbles 3 (TRB3), whose abundance is increased during fasting, stimulates lipolysis by triggering the degradation of ACC in adipose tissue. TRB3 promoted ACC ubiquitination through an association with the E3 ubiquitin ligase constitutive photomorphogenic protein 1 (COP1). Indeed, adipocytes deficient in TRB3 accumulated larger amounts of ACC protein than did wild-type cells. Because transgenic mice expressing TRB3 in adipose tissue are protected from diet-induced obesity due to enhanced fatty acid oxidation, these results demonstrate how phosphorylation and ubiquitination pathways converge on a key regulator of lipid metabolism to maintain energy homeostasis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Qi, Ling -- Heredia, Jose E -- Altarejos, Judith Y -- Screaton, Robert -- Goebel, Naomi -- Niessen, Sherry -- Macleod, Ian X -- Liew, Chong Wee -- Kulkarni, Rohit N -- Bain, James -- Newgard, Christopher -- Nelson, Michael -- Evans, Ronald M -- Yates, John -- Montminy, Marc -- DK064142/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Jun 23;312(5781):1763-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Peptide Biology Laboratories and Gene Expression Laboratories, Salk Institute for Biological Studies, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16794074" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The restoration of catalytic activity to mutant enzymes by small molecules is well established for in vitro systems. Here, we show that the protein tyrosine kinase Src arginine-388--〉alanine (R388A) mutant can be rescued in live cells with the use of the small molecule imidazole. Cellular rescue of a viral Src homolog was rapid and reversible and conferred predicted oncogenic properties. Using chemical rescue in combination with mass spectrometry, we confirmed six known Src kinase substrates and identified several new protein targets. Chemical rescue data suggest that cellular Src is active under basal conditions. Rescue of R388A cellular Src provided insights into the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. This chemical rescue approach will likely have many applications in cell signaling.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Qiao, Yingfeng -- Molina, Henrik -- Pandey, Akhilesh -- Zhang, Jin -- Cole, Philip A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Mar 3;311(5765):1293-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology and Molecular Sciences, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16513984" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) produced during viral replication is believed to be the critical trigger for activation of antiviral immunity mediated by the RNA helicase enzymes retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) and melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5). We showed that influenza A virus infection does not generate dsRNA and that RIG-I is activated by viral genomic single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) bearing 5'-phosphates. This is blocked by the influenza protein nonstructured protein 1 (NS1), which is found in a complex with RIG-I in infected cells. These results identify RIG-I as a ssRNA sensor and potential target of viral immune evasion and suggest that its ability to sense 5'-phosphorylated RNA evolved in the innate immune system as a means of discriminating between self and nonself.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Pichlmair, Andreas -- Schulz, Oliver -- Tan, Choon Ping -- Naslund, Tanja I -- Liljestrom, Peter -- Weber, Friedemann -- Reis e Sousa, Caetano -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Nov 10;314(5801):997-1001.

    Description: In contrast to current models, fluorescence resonance energy transfer measurements using a single-cell imaging assay with fluorescent forms of PER and TIM showed that these proteins bind rapidly and persist in the cytoplasm while gradually accumulating in discrete foci. After approximately 6 hours, complexes abruptly dissociated, as PER and TIM independently moved to the nucleus in a narrow time frame. The per(L) mutation delayed nuclear accumulation in vivo and in our cultured cell system, but without affecting rates of PER/TIM assembly or dissociation. This finding points to a previously unrecognized form of temporal regulation that underlies the periodicity of the circadian clock.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Meyer, Pablo -- Saez, Lino -- Young, Michael W -- GM54339/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Jan 13;311(5758):226-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Genetics, Rockefeller University, 1230 York Avenue, New York, NY 10021, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16410523" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV, human herpesvirus 8) is the causative agent of Kaposi's sarcoma and other lymphoproliferative syndromes often associated with HIV/AIDS. Functional complementary DNA selection for a receptor mediating KSHV cell fusion identified xCT, the 12-transmembrane light chain of the human cystine/glutamate exchange transporter system x-c. Expression of recombinant xCT rendered otherwise not susceptible target cells permissive for both KSHV cell fusion and virion entry. Antibodies against xCT blocked KSHV fusion and entry with naturally permissive target cells. KSHV target cell permissiveness correlated closely with endogenous expression of xCT messenger RNA and protein in diverse human and nonhuman cell types.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kaleeba, Johnan A R -- Berger, Edward A -- Intramural NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Mar 31;311(5769):1921-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Viral Diseases, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16574866" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Diverse bacterial and viral pathogens induce actin polymerization in the cytoplasm of host cells to facilitate infection. Here, we describe a pathogenic mechanism for promoting dynamic actin assembly in the nucleus to enable viral replication. The baculovirus Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus induced nuclear actin polymerization by translocating the host actin-nucleating Arp2/3 complex into the nucleus, where it was activated by p78/83, a viral Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP)-like protein. Nuclear actin assembly by p78/83 and Arp2/3 complex was essential for viral progeny production. Recompartmentalizing dynamic host actin may represent a conserved mode of pathogenesis and reflect viral manipulation of normal functions of nuclear actin.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Goley, Erin D -- Ohkawa, Taro -- Mancuso, Joel -- Woodruff, Jeffrey B -- D'Alessio, Joseph A -- Cande, W Zacheus -- Volkman, Loy E -- Welch, Matthew D -- AI054693/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- GM59609/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM059609/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM059609-07/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Oct 20;314(5798):464-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular and Cell Biology, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17053146" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The stable propagation of genetic material during cell division depends on the congression of chromosomes to the spindle equator before the cell initiates anaphase. It is generally assumed that congression requires that chromosomes are connected to the opposite poles of the bipolar spindle ("bioriented"). In mammalian cells, we found that chromosomes can congress before becoming bioriented. By combining the use of reversible chemical inhibitors, live-cell light microscopy, and correlative electron microscopy, we found that monooriented chromosomes could glide toward the spindle equator alongside kinetochore fibers attached to other already bioriented chromosomes. This congression mechanism depended on the kinetochore-associated, plus end-directed microtubule motor CENP-E (kinesin-7).〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4768465/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4768465/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kapoor, Tarun M -- Lampson, Michael A -- Hergert, Polla -- Cameron, Lisa -- Cimini, Daniela -- Salmon, E D -- McEwen, Bruce F -- Khodjakov, Alexey -- GM06627/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM24364/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM59363/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM65933/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM024364/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM059363/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R37 GM024364/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Jan 20;311(5759):388-91.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Chemistry and Cell Biology, Rockefeller University, New York, NY 10021, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16424343" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The treelike structures of many organs, including the mammary gland, are generated by branching morphogenesis, a reiterative process of branch initiation and invasion from a preexisting epithelium. Using a micropatterning approach to control the initial three-dimensional structure of mouse mammary epithelial tubules in culture, combined with an algorithm to quantify the extent of branching, we found that the geometry of tubules dictates the position of branches. We predicted numerically and confirm experimentally that branches initiate at sites with a local minimum in the concentration of autocrine inhibitory morphogens, such as transforming growth factor-beta. These results reveal that tissue geometry can control organ morphogenesis by defining the local cellular microenvironment, a finding that has relevance to control of invasion and metastasis.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2933179/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2933179/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Nelson, Celeste M -- Vanduijn, Martijn M -- Inman, Jamie L -- Fletcher, Daniel A -- Bissell, Mina J -- CA57621/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA64786/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM72736/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA057621/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA057621-10/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA064786/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA064786-10/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM072736/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM072736-05/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Oct 13;314(5797):298-300.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Life Sciences Division, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17038622" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Mammalian X inactivation turns off one female X chromosome to enact dosage compensation between XX and XY individuals. X inactivation is known to be regulated in cis by Xite, Tsix, and Xist, but in principle the two Xs must also be regulated in trans to ensure mutually exclusive silencing. Here, we demonstrate that interchromosomal pairing mediates this communication. Pairing occurs transiently at the onset of X inactivation and is specific to the X-inactivation center. Deleting Xite and Tsix perturbs pairing and counting/choice, whereas their autosomal insertion induces de novo X-autosome pairing. Ectopic X-autosome interactions inhibit endogenous X-X pairing and block the initiation of X-chromosome inactivation. Thus, Tsix and Xite function both in cis and in trans. We propose that Tsix and Xite regulate counting and mutually exclusive choice through X-X pairing.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Xu, Na -- Tsai, Chia-Lun -- Lee, Jeannie T -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Feb 24;311(5764):1149-52.

    Description: TFII-I is a transcription factor and a target of phosphorylation by Bruton's tyrosine kinase. In humans, deletions spanning the TFII-I locus are associated with a cognitive defect, the Williams-Beuren cognitive profile. We report an unanticipated role of TFII-I outside the nucleus as a negative regulator of agonist-induced calcium entry (ACE) that suppresses surface accumulation of TRPC3 (transient receptor potential C3) channels. Inhibition of ACE by TFII-I requires phosphotyrosine residues that engage the SH2 (Src-homology 2) domains of phospholipase C-g (PLC-g) and an interrupted, pleckstrin homology (PH)-like domain that binds the split PH domain of PLC-g. Our observations suggest a model in which TFII-I suppresses ACE by competing with TRPC3 for binding to PLC-g.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Caraveo, Gabriela -- van Rossum, Damian B -- Patterson, Randen L -- Snyder, Solomon H -- Desiderio, Stephen -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Oct 6;314(5796):122-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, Institute for Cell Engineering, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17023658" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The parietal-eye photoreceptor is unique because it has two antagonistic light signaling pathways in the same cell-a hyperpolarizing pathway maximally sensitive to blue light and a depolarizing pathway maximally sensitive to green light. Here, we report the molecular components of these two pathways. We found two opsins in the same cell: the blue-sensitive pinopsin and a previously unidentified green-sensitive opsin, which we name parietopsin. Signaling components included gustducin-alpha and Galphao, but not rod or cone transducin-alpha. Single-cell recordings demonstrated that Go mediates the depolarizing response. Gustducin-alpha resembles transducin-alpha functionally and likely mediates the hyperpolarizing response. The parietopsin-Go signaling pair provides clues about how rod and cone phototransduction might have evolved.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Su, Chih-Ying -- Luo, Dong-Gen -- Terakita, Akihisa -- Shichida, Yoshinori -- Liao, Hsi-Wen -- Kazmi, Manija A -- Sakmar, Thomas P -- Yau, King-Wai -- EY06837/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 DC006904/DC/NIDCD NIH HHS/ -- R01 DC006904-01/DC/NIDCD NIH HHS/ -- R01 DC006904-02/DC/NIDCD NIH HHS/ -- R01 EY006837/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 EY006837-16A1/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 EY006837-17/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 EY006837-18/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 EY006837-19/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 EY014596/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 EY014596-01/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 EY014596-02/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 EY014596-03/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 EY014596-04/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R37 EY006837/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R37 EY006837-15S1/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Mar 17;311(5767):1617-21.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neuroscience, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA. chih-ying.su@yale.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16543463" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Lithium is commonly used to treat bipolar disorder, which is associated with altered circadian rhythm. Lithium is a potent inhibitor of glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3), which regulates circadian rhythm in several organisms. In experiments with cultured cells, we show here that GSK3beta phosphorylates and stabilizes the orphan nuclear receptor Rev-erbalpha, a negative component of the circadian clock. Lithium treatment of cells leads to rapid proteasomal degradation of Rev-erbalpha and activation of clock gene Bmal1. A form of Rev-erbalpha that is insensitive to lithium interferes with the expression of circadian genes. Control of Rev-erbalpha protein stability is thus a critical component of the peripheral clock and a biological target of lithium therapy.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yin, Lei -- Wang, Jing -- Klein, Peter S -- Lazar, Mitchell A -- DK 19525/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- DK45586/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- MH058324/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH058324/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH058324-07/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH058324-08/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Feb 17;311(5763):1002-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism, and University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, 415 Curie Boulevard, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16484495" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The DKC1 gene encodes a pseudouridine synthase that modifies ribosomal RNA (rRNA). DKC1 is mutated in people with X-linked dyskeratosis congenita (X-DC), a disease characterized by bone marrow failure, skin abnormalities, and increased susceptibility to cancer. How alterations in ribosome modification might lead to cancer and other features of the disease remains unknown. Using an unbiased proteomics strategy, we discovered a specific defect in IRES (internal ribosome entry site)-dependent translation in Dkc1(m) mice and in cells from X-DC patients. This defect results in impaired translation of messenger RNAs containing IRES elements, including those encoding the tumor suppressor p27(Kip1) and the antiapoptotic factors Bcl-xL and XIAP (X-linked Inhibitor of Apoptosis Protein). Moreover, Dkc1(m) ribosomes were unable to direct translation from IRES elements present in viral messenger RNAs. These findings reveal a potential mechanism by which defective ribosome activity leads to disease and cancer.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yoon, Andrew -- Peng, Guang -- Brandenburger, Yves -- Zollo, Ornella -- Xu, Wei -- Rego, Eduardo -- Ruggero, Davide -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 May 12;312(5775):902-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Human Genetics Program, Fox Chase Cancer Center, Philadelphia, PA 19111, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16690864" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: To resolve the controversy about messengers regulating KCNQ ion channels during phospholipase C-mediated suppression of current, we designed translocatable enzymes that quickly alter the phosphoinositide composition of the plasma membrane after application of a chemical cue. The KCNQ current falls rapidly to zero when phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2 or PI(4,5)P2] is depleted without changing Ca2+, diacylglycerol, or inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. Current rises by 30% when PI(4,5)P2 is overproduced and does not change when phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate is raised. Hence, the depletion of PI(4,5)P2 suffices to suppress current fully, and other second messengers are not needed. Our approach is ideally suited to study biological signaling networks involving membrane phosphoinositides.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3579521/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3579521/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Suh, Byung-Chang -- Inoue, Takanari -- Meyer, Tobias -- Hille, Bertil -- AR17803/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- GM63702/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- MH64801/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- NS08174/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM030179/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM030179-24A1/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM030179-25/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM063702/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH064801/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS008174/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Dec 1;314(5804):1454-7.

    Description: Yeast is a widely used recombinant protein expression system. We expanded its utility by engineering the yeast Pichia pastoris to secrete human glycoproteins with fully complex terminally sialylated N-glycans. After the knockout of four genes to eliminate yeast-specific glycosylation, we introduced 14 heterologous genes, allowing us to replicate the sequential steps of human glycosylation. The reported cell lines produce complex glycoproteins with greater than 90% terminal sialylation. Finally, to demonstrate the utility of these yeast strains, functional recombinant erythropoietin was produced.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hamilton, Stephen R -- Davidson, Robert C -- Sethuraman, Natarajan -- Nett, Juergen H -- Jiang, Youwei -- Rios, Sandra -- Bobrowicz, Piotr -- Stadheim, Terrance A -- Li, Huijuan -- Choi, Byung-Kwon -- Hopkins, Daniel -- Wischnewski, Harry -- Roser, Jessica -- Mitchell, Teresa -- Strawbridge, Rendall R -- Hoopes, Jack -- Wildt, Stefan -- Gerngross, Tillman U -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Sep 8;313(5792):1441-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉GlycoFi Inc., 21 Lafayette Street, Suite 200, Lebanon, NH 03766, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16960007" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: How the widely used botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT/A) recognizes and enters neurons is poorly understood. We found that BoNT/A enters neurons by binding to the synaptic vesicle protein SV2 (isoforms A, B, and C). Fragments of SV2 that harbor the toxin interaction domain inhibited BoNT/A from binding to neurons. BoNT/A binding to SV2A and SV2B knockout hippocampal neurons was abolished and was restored by expressing SV2A, SV2B, or SV2C. Reduction of SV2 expression in PC12 and Neuro-2a cells also inhibited entry of BoNT/A, which could be restored by expressing SV2 isoforms. Finally, mice that lacked an SV2 isoform (SV2B) displayed reduced sensitivity to BoNT/A. Thus, SV2 acts as the protein receptor for BoNT/A.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dong, Min -- Yeh, Felix -- Tepp, William H -- Dean, Camin -- Johnson, Eric A -- Janz, Roger -- Chapman, Edwin R -- R01 EY016452/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 EY016452-03/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Apr 28;312(5773):592-6.

    Description: The posttranslational modification sumoylation can have multiple effects on its substrate proteins. We studied a patient with isolated cleft lip and palate and a balanced chromosomal translocation that disrupts the SUMO1 (small ubiquitin-related modifier) gene, resulting in haploinsufficiency. In mouse, we found that Sumo1 is expressed in the developing lip and palate and that a Sumo1 hypomorphic allele manifests an incompletely penetrant orofacial clefting phenotype. Products of several genes implicated in clefting are sumoylated, and the Sumo1 hypomorphic allele interacts genetically with a loss-of-function allele for one of these loci. Thus, sumoylation defines a network of genes important for palatogenesis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Alkuraya, Fowzan S -- Saadi, Irfan -- Lund, Jennifer J -- Turbe-Doan, Annick -- Morton, Cynthia C -- Maas, Richard L -- DE015246/DE/NIDCR NIH HHS/ -- DE11697/DE/NIDCR NIH HHS/ -- GM061365/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- HD043430/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- P01 GM061354/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Sep 22;313(5794):1751.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Genetics, Department of Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, NRB-458, 77 Louis Pasteur, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16990542" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Although type 2 immune responses contribute to allergy and asthma, these responses are essential for clearing intestinal helminth infestations by mechanisms that include increased epithelial shedding. We show that T helper 2 cells (T(H)2), but not other T cell subsets, express amphiregulin, a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family. EGF receptor ligands directly induce epithelial cell proliferation, and lack of amphiregulin delayed expulsion of the nematode Trichuris muris. This newly recognized link between T(H)2 cells and epithelial proliferation should help in planning therapeutic interventions for helminth infections and other diseases that involve both cell proliferation and allergy, such as asthma.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zaiss, Dietmar M -- Yang, Li -- Shah, Pranav R -- Kobie, James J -- Urban, Joseph F -- Mosmann, Tim R -- AI48604/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- DFG/ZA280/PHS HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Dec 15;314(5806):1746.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉David H.

Upon innervation, neural agrin activates MuSK to establish the postsynaptic apparatus, although agrin-independent formation of neuromuscular synapses can also occur experimentally in the absence of neurotransmission. Dok-7, a MuSK-interacting cytoplasmic protein, is essential for MuSK activation in cultured myotubes; in particular, the Dok-7 phosphotyrosine-binding domain and its target in MuSK are indispensable. Mice lacking Dok-7 formed neither acetylcholine receptor clusters nor neuromuscular synapses. Thus, Dok-7 is essential for neuromuscular synaptogenesis through its interaction with MuSK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Okada, Kumiko -- Inoue, Akane -- Okada, Momoko -- Murata, Yoji -- Kakuta, Shigeru -- Jigami, Takafumi -- Kubo, Sachiko -- Shiraishi, Hirokazu -- Eguchi, Katsumi -- Motomura, Masakatsu -- Akiyama, Tetsu -- Iwakura, Yoichiro -- Higuchi, Osamu -- Yamanashi, Yuji -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Jun 23;312(5781):1802-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cell Regulation, Medical Research Institute, Tokyo Medical and Dental University, Tokyo 113-8510, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16794080" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Voltage-gated proton channels have been widely observed but have not been identified at a molecular level. Here we report that a four-transmembrane protein similar to the voltage-sensor domain of voltage-gated ion channels is a voltage-gated proton channel. Cells overexpressing this protein showed depolarization-induced outward currents accompanied by tail currents. Current reversal occured at equilibrium potentials for protons. The currents exhibited pH-dependent gating and zinc ion sensitivity, two features which are characteristic of voltage-gated proton channels. Responses of voltage dependence to sequence changes suggest that mouse voltage-sensor domain-only protein is itself a channel, rather than a regulator of another channel protein.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sasaki, Mari -- Takagi, Masahiro -- Okamura, Yasushi -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Apr 28;312(5773):589-92.

    Description: Because HIV-1 does not infect most nonhuman primates, animal modeling of human HIV infection and AIDS has primarily consisted of experimentally infecting macaques with related simian immunodeficiency viruses (SIVMAC). However, the usefulness of such models is limited by the substantial divergence between SIVMAC and HIV-1. We derived an HIV-1-based virus that includes only small portions of SIVMAC yet replicates robustly in both transformed and primary rhesus macaque T cells. Derivation of simian-tropic HIV-1 (stHIV-1) has important implications for understanding primate lentivirus zoonosis and should allow the development of improved animal models for studies of AIDS and the evaluation of vaccines and treatments.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hatziioannou, Theodora -- Princiotta, Michael -- Piatak, Michael Jr -- Yuan, Fang -- Zhang, Fengwen -- Lifson, Jeffrey D -- Bieniasz, Paul D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Oct 6;314(5796):95.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center and Rockefeller University, 455 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17023652" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Natural populations of beach mice exhibit a characteristic color pattern, relative to their mainland conspecifics, driven by natural selection for crypsis. We identified a derived, charge-changing amino acid mutation in the melanocortin-1 receptor (Mc1r) in beach mice, which decreases receptor function. In genetic crosses, allelic variation at Mc1r explains 9.8% to 36.4% of the variation in seven pigmentation traits determining color pattern. The derived Mc1r allele is present in Florida's Gulf Coast beach mice but not in Atlantic coast mice with similar light coloration, suggesting that different molecular mechanisms are responsible for convergent phenotypic evolution. Here, we link a single mutation in the coding region of a pigmentation gene to adaptive quantitative variation in the wild.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hoekstra, Hopi E -- Hirschmann, Rachel J -- Bundey, Richard A -- Insel, Paul A -- Crossland, Janet P -- P40-RR14279/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Jul 7;313(5783):101-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Biological Sciences, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093, USA. hoekstra@ucsd.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16825572" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Dynamic modulation of ion channels by phosphorylation underlies neuronal plasticity. The Kv2.1 potassium channel is highly phosphorylated in resting mammalian neurons. Activity-dependent Kv2.1 dephosphorylation by calcineurin induces graded hyperpolarizing shifts in voltage-dependent activation, causing suppression of neuronal excitability. Mass spectrometry-SILAC (stable isotope labeling with amino acids in cell culture) identified 16 Kv2.1 phosphorylation sites, of which 7 were dephosphorylated by calcineurin. Mutation of individual calcineurin-regulated sites to alanine produced incremental shifts mimicking dephosphorylation, whereas mutation to aspartate yielded equivalent resistance to calcineurin. Mutations at multiple sites were additive, showing that variable phosphorylation of Kv2.1 at a large number of sites allows graded activity-dependent regulation of channel gating and neuronal firing properties.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Park, Kang-Sik -- Mohapatra, Durga P -- Misonou, Hiroaki -- Trimmer, James S -- NS42225/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS042225/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS042225-06/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Aug 18;313(5789):976-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology, School of Medicine, University of California, Davis, CA 95616, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16917065" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The unfolded protein response (UPR) allows the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to recover from the accumulation of misfolded proteins, in part by increasing its folding capacity. Inositol-requiring enzyme-1 (IRE1) promotes this remodeling by detecting misfolded ER proteins and activating a transcription factor, X-box-binding protein 1, through endonucleolytic cleavage of its messenger RNA (mRNA). Here, we report that IRE1 independently mediates the rapid degradation of a specific subset of mRNAs, based both on their localization to the ER membrane and on the amino acid sequence they encode. This response is well suited to complement other UPR mechanisms because it could selectively halt production of proteins that challenge the ER and clear the translocation and folding machinery for the subsequent remodeling process.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hollien, Julie -- Weissman, Jonathan S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Jul 7;313(5783):104-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cellular and Molecular Pharmacology, University of California San Francisco, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16825573" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: RhoA signaling plays a critical role in many cellular processes, including cell migration. Here we show that the vaccinia F11L protein interacts directly with RhoA, inhibiting its signaling by blocking the interaction with its downstream effectors Rho-associated kinase (ROCK) and mDia. RNA interference-mediated depletion of F11L during infection resulted in an absence of vaccinia-induced cell motility and inhibition of viral morphogenesis. Disruption of the RhoA binding site in F11L, which resembles that of ROCK, led to an identical phenotype. Thus, inhibition of RhoA signaling is required for both vaccinia morphogenesis and virus-induced cell motility.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Valderrama, Ferran -- Cordeiro, Joao V -- Schleich, Sibylle -- Frischknecht, Friedrich -- Way, Michael -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Jan 20;311(5759):377-81.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cell Motility Laboratory, Cancer Research UK, London Research Institute, Lincoln's Inn Fields Laboratories, 44 Lincoln's Inn Fields, WC2A 3PX London, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16424340" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The structural basis for the distinction of viral RNA from abundant self RNA in the cytoplasm of virally infected cells is largely unknown. We demonstrated that the 5'-triphosphate end of RNA generated by viral polymerases is responsible for retinoic acid-inducible protein I (RIG-I)-mediated detection of RNA molecules. Detection of 5'-triphosphate RNA is abrogated by capping of the 5'-triphosphate end or by nucleoside modification of RNA, both occurring during posttranscriptional RNA processing in eukaryotes. Genomic RNA prepared from a negative-strand RNA virus and RNA prepared from virus-infected cells (but not from noninfected cells) triggered a potent interferon-alpha response in a phosphatase-sensitive manner. 5'-triphosphate RNA directly binds to RIG-I. Thus, uncapped 5'-triphosphate RNA (now termed 3pRNA) present in viruses known to be recognized by RIG-I, but absent in viruses known to be detected by MDA-5 such as the picornaviruses, serves as the molecular signature for the detection of viral infection by RIG-I.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hornung, Veit -- Ellegast, Jana -- Kim, Sarah -- Brzozka, Krzysztof -- Jung, Andreas -- Kato, Hiroki -- Poeck, Hendrik -- Akira, Shizuo -- Conzelmann, Karl-Klaus -- Schlee, Martin -- Endres, Stefan -- Hartmann, Gunther -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Nov 10;314(5801):994-7.

    Description: Postsynaptic differentiation of dendrites is an essential step in synapse formation. We report here a requirement for the transcription factor myocyte enhancer factor 2A (MEF2A) in the morphogenesis of postsynaptic granule neuron dendritic claws in the cerebellar cortex. A transcriptional repressor form of MEF2A that is sumoylated at lysine-403 promoted dendritic claw differentiation. Activity-dependent calcium signaling induced a calcineurin-mediated dephosphorylation of MEF2A at serine-408 and, thereby, promoted a switch from sumoylation to acetylation at lysine-403, which led to inhibition of dendritic claw differentiation. Our findings define a mechanism underlying postsynaptic differentiation that may modulate activity-dependent synapse development and plasticity in the brain.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shalizi, Aryaman -- Gaudilliere, Brice -- Yuan, Zengqiang -- Stegmuller, Judith -- Shirogane, Takahiro -- Ge, Qingyuan -- Tan, Yi -- Schulman, Brenda -- Harper, J Wade -- Bonni, Azad -- AG11085/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- NS41021/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Feb 17;311(5763):1012-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, Harvard Medical School, 77 Louis Pasteur Avenue, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16484498" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMSs) are a group of inherited disorders of neuromuscular transmission characterized by fatigable muscle weakness. One major subgroup of patients shows a characteristic "limb girdle" pattern of muscle weakness, in which the muscles have small, simplified neuromuscular junctions but normal acetylcholine receptor and acetylcholinesterase function. We showed that recessive inheritance of mutations in Dok-7, which result in a defective structure of the neuromuscular junction, is a cause of CMS with proximal muscle weakness.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Beeson, David -- Higuchi, Osamu -- Palace, Jackie -- Cossins, Judy -- Spearman, Hayley -- Maxwell, Susan -- Newsom-Davis, John -- Burke, Georgina -- Fawcett, Peter -- Motomura, Masakatsu -- Muller, Juliane S -- Lochmuller, Hanns -- Slater, Clarke -- Vincent, Angela -- Yamanashi, Yuji -- G117/490/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Sep 29;313(5795):1975-8.
